Thank you Meena for allowing us to republish your article originally published in Outlook India (March 2012) In that strange coastal town-city where it rains every morning, I partake of pain as if it is prayer.

For me International Women’s Day is a day to reflect on the struggle women have had to overcome gender inequality over the centuries. Though gender inequality still remains, just think of how far women have come – we can vote, we can work, in short we are no longer seen as second class citizens. This day should be a celebration ...

I thought I’d share the following short segment of a brand new talk show on MSNBC TV network in the US.

But women must remember they are equal, independent and can overcome any adversity if they want to be considered as such. We must not forget how strong we are. We need ...
